Editor Register :
Notwithstanding the cotton fields are
white,- and Lumets are busy generally,
wo had a good attendance at our last
meeting, both members and spectators.
'Die question for the evening fDoes the
prosperity of tin* country depend morn
upon ouo class of iu citizens ityiui anoth
er 1) was ably disci, f-se.,l by a number of
our members. The contest was lively ;
big guns were firpj on both sides, but
nobody was hurt The musketry was
he’d in reserve, but as the Ibi't wits
stormed by the mounted guns) thb mua-*
k.‘t beys were glad to be relieved bf ally
duty whatever.
W. W. Wsi colt offered s .me resolu
tions, which were adopted, and ti e sumo
to be published in the county paper.
I will give below the report of those
who were cbtitestunte on Wheat and oats
ii our club :
wheat.
M. Tucker, one acre wheat, 10J bu,
J. G. McNair, “ “ 10£ “
L. L. Waldrop “ “ 18 “
W. L. Peek. “ “ 34 “
G. W. Warren “ “ 10$ “
OATS.
J. G. McNair, or.e acfb dtUs, 26 bu.
L. Wiildrop, “ “ 64 “
From the above figures it will be seen
that Rockdale is making at least some
progress in agriculture. It is certainly
to be hoped that the day is not fir dis
tant when llockdalc can boast of an av
eraga of 10 bushels of wheat per act* I
yes, 20; and then not be doing what
she ought to do !
11. 8. McNaik, Secretary.
P. S. Question for next meeting :
“Should there be that dignity attached
to agricultural pursuits as to other pro
fessions ?” This question has been dis.
cussed by oar club, but some are not
satisfied and want another chance at it.
You Editors had better come out or else
we might not say much in your behalf.
